We hold the world in our hands. Let’s celebrate the good. Let’s ease another’s suffering, large or small, harm none, and share our love. That’s what we can do in a moment; in this moment, in our own small corner of the world. ~ ♥ Patricia

It’s December!

Bring on the bells, the fireplaces all aglow, reindeer on rooftops, the hubbub, long lines, flaring tempers, excited children, too many sweets, blinking lights, trees and wreaths, singing and angels… it’s all there, all of it, comes so fast, gone just as quickly ~ so be of good cheer. Find the bright in your heart, and be of good cheer. ♥ ~ Patricia

The intertwining of colors and textures. The weaving of comfort and protection, warmth, pleasure, practicality and play into numberless long-lasting things made with love… So much goodness in one ball of yarn. So much peace it can bring.

Because peace can be spontaneous and frivolous and fluid and “unfinished”… a little rough around the edges, a bit overworked in some spots, underworked in others; add some color here, some color there. Kind of like life, and art, and people ~ peace is a work in progress.

Let the games begin! As the greatest athletes in all the world compete and dazzle and inspire ~ may the olympic spirit of peace and understanding also dazzle and inspire us, carrying us forward on flames of hope and hearts full of promise and individual determination to do what’s right and good and strong.
